Bloody Romance had phenomenal acting, cinematography, and direction. The scenery and costumes were gorgeous. The music and sound editing were also great. The problem I had with this drama was mainly the plot. At first it was interesting, but at some point later on I just couldn't get into it anymore. It almost felt inconsistent at times. I understand that this was supposed to be a wuxia, but I wasn't sure what was going because they would incorporate random elements of magic at times. The plot was also changed significantly because it was based off an erotica, so maybe that had something to do with it. Either way, that enjoyment factor wasn't there for me. I just couldn't get sucked into the story for some reason. What I did love about the story was that they made the targets human. They weren't just some evil people that needed to be killed. Sure they did some shady stuff, but they were actually kind of likable. It was refreshing to see and it also reinforced the difficulties of being an assassin...having to kill people that aren't just pure evil. I also loved the animated storytelling of scenes from the past, which added to the aesthetic beauty of this drama.
